A 15 members delegation of public welfare forum submitted a memorandum to honourable Lieutenant GovernorJkut Sh. Manoj Sinha ji regarding the RBA reservation to be granted ST -2 status to whole Lohai Malhar Bani constituency and all other RBA areas by merging 10% RBA reservation into ST -2 10% reservation to raise it to 20% as was before abrogation of article 370 to be given benefit of reservation at all India level central govt jobs, admissions in all Institutions and Universities ,RBA is a discriminatory reservation as it is not granted, recognized at all India level services even after the abrogation of art 370 .
It is against the very spirit of one nation and one reservation, one nation, one election ,one nation ,one education, one nation,one election card or Adhaar Card ,etc. it denies equal opportunities to all RBA reserved categories at all India level. Hope honourable LG to consider the demand and reconsider the proposal of Omar Abdullah govt.
The delegation led by myself include Mohd Salim Sheikh, Mushtaq Ahmed Sheikh Hem Raj Thakur, Bishan Dass Thakur, Subash Chander Thakur, Vijay Sharma all retired officers , Punjab Singh Thakur, Hans Raj Sharma, Alyas M***i sahab, Abid Hussain Khan and many others.
